Ivermectin and hcq do nothing for covid. No idea what fluvoxamine is.

It's an antidepressant. I don't think it has any effect on COVID, either proven or rumoured.

There have been several small studies which show fluvoxamine is an effective COVID-19 treatment.

Results are still somewhat preliminary and it isn't formally approved for that use but I know that many physicians are prescribing it off label and report positive results. The safety profile is good as a temporary acute treatment so there's little reason not to use it.

Huh I hadn't heard of that yet. I wonder if the same goes for other SSRIs. It's a pretty big class.

I hope you or someone close to you never get as desperate as I was. Saved my life.
